Our Plan

[Clarey]

Hi with just under 7 weeks to go I have nearly finished our plan and would appreciate any advise. Thanks.

Thursday 16/10 Travel to Gatwick use twilight check in and then find guesthouse.
Fri 17/10 Fly to Orlando, find villa and shop.
Sat 18/10 Universal Studios then maybe a bit of shopping
Sun 19/10 Relax at Villa, play golf, shop. Mnsshp in the evening
Mon 20/10 This is a free day so could use it to go to US/IOA
Tues 21/10 IOA and then the Florida Mall
Weds 22/10 IOA/US then back to villa for swim etc
Thurs 23/10 Disney Water park still undecided which one swaying to BB as James loves slides.
Fri 24/10 Discovery Cove
Sat 25/10 Sea Worlds Halloween Party
Sun 26/10 Rest day Maybe go and see the final day of golf if we can get the tickets
Mon 27/10 Epcot
Tues 28/10 Lie in then Sea World and maybe a bit of shopping at Belz.
Weds 29/10 Free Day – could be a day to go a Disney Park.
Thurs 30/10 Kennady Space Centre
Fri 31/10 Free Day – Maybe a trip to Celebration.
Sat 1/11 Animal Kingdom
Sun 2/11 Crazy Golf at Disney – leave for the airport 18.05pm flight.

We have 5 continuous days for the price of 3 tickets for US/IOA and have the 7 free days at Seaworld tickets with the DC Tickets. We have some days (not sure how many) on old Disney tickets so will wait and see how many before we buy them.
We also plan to visit Boggy Creek Airboats and Gatorland but they are both near to where we are staying so will wait to book them. I havnt planned much for the evenings but do plan of going shopping etc.

Thanks.

Are you sure you will be able to find somewhere to stay at Gatwick without booking in advance? If I were you I'd book in at a Travel Inn or Travelodge or something. I wouldn't want to risk sleeping in the car before spending 9 hours on a plane!

Hi Edie, We have booked a Guest House its just that we havnt stayed there before so it might take some finding

Hi there,

I was wondering if you found a reasonable rate at the guesthouse? - I'm going to England for the first 3 weeks in December, and will probably want to get down to Gatwick on Friday night the 19th - for my trip home Saturday the 20th. I'll be staying out near Banbury - and it's a stressful drive pushed drive on Saturday morning (I've done it and don't enjoy it at all - of course it's probably just that I'm more comfortable driving out there in the country side - than on the motorways.. laugh)

Thanks!!
Pam

Hi Pam yes we had a good deal if we booked before the new year (last year) with this Guest House . Quite a few members on the Dibb recommended it to me

If you're a member of the AA, the triple A just off the 192 will sell you a ticket for Gatorland and Boggy Creek for a greatly reduced price !

I'd make a little more use of the free time at SW and probably not bother with the extra cost of Gatorland. For Boggy Creek I think it's still going to be pretty warm so you may find that a night time boatride would bring you into more and closer contact with the gators, although you would miss out on seeing the bird life. Maybe if you did a night time Boggy Creek ride and saw plenty of gators in the wild that may lessen your desire for seeing them in captivity.

Thanks everyone
I might just do the night time at boggy creek thanks vernon
